    I'm not the only one who wonders how much of that is the juiced big league ball, right? I mean, he didn't hit 20 total in like three seasons in the minors.

    Good news is we play the Mets next. Time to beat up on a garbage team.

    I'm sure that has a lot to do with it.

    Don't spend good money or good assets on relief pitching. Just don't do it.

    I agree. Relievers are a fickle bunch.

    we face their best pitchers though, including deGrom in game one.

    aside from deGrom, their best pitches are pitching really badly.

    I don’t really get why Tomlin is still in. I’m guessing we are conserving guys, but we have a legit shot at winning this.

    Diaz career xFIP: 2.57
    Diaz 2019 xFIP: 2.81

    I kind of doubt the Mets are crying about that difference overmuch.

    I was told that he couldn't sustain anything close to a pace to get there and anyone who believed that was a PosiDummy. DERP

    Am I doing this right?

    Chatwood pitches horribly. Barely escaped with only giving up 6 runs and he’s on the hook for the W. Pathetic.

    Some of it is, but it was obvious in the last two years that the pop was coming. He hit just 6 HRs in 2016, but a guy from another channel of mine said that he watched some batting practices with him as a 19 year old and he was hitting balls way out of the park in the Southern League's chasm parks.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.
